Infobox Logos and Captions
editNice work with tidying up the season pages over the past few weeks. But I must ask, why the need to reduce the image logo and remove the caption? I thought it looked fine as it was, but I won't revert it back for the time being. MDM (talk) 07:50, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
- Hey. Thanks. Yeah, as with everything I do it's aimed at the improvement of the articles. I could find no other sports league on wikipedia which had a similar caption below its logo, and this made sense to me, as anyone looking at a logo with "NSWRL" on it might be able to deduce that it is, in fact the logo of the NSWRL. Such a caption would be appropriate where the logo appears on the relevant area of a NSWRL history page, e.i. "Logo of the NSWRL from 19XX to 19XX." or the like, not on every season's infobox. Also I thought 150px was tad too large, so reduced them a tad. I felt that they kinda dominated the page too much. I use that Wikipedia image there in the top left corner as a guide. I don't think they should be bigger than that, otherwise its overkill. I believe sometimes less is more. Some of the things I see going on in rugby league articles make it painfully obvious that editors are trying their best to add more content without regard for articles' quality by academic writing standards. In my eyes it makes for less classy encyclopedia content.--Jeff79 (talk) 04:30, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
Just on the season infoboxes, I really hate that gap created by having the '(s)' in 'Top points scorer(s)' forced onto its own line. Rather than make the infobox any wider, how about we change it to 'Top try-scorer(s)' and 'Top point-scorer(s)' (which I personally prefer anyway). Someone was adamant that it should be 'try scorer' and 'points scorer' in a previous discussion. I can't remember if that was you or not. But surely removing that stupid space is the lesser of two evils.--Jeff79 (talk) 07:53, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
Oh you don't see it? I get it at home (where I use vista and the latest Internet Explorer) and here at work (where I use XP and an older IE version). I assumed everyone saw the same thing. Wierd. For me it's like this:
Top points scorer So-and-so (X points) (s) Top try scorer(s) Whatshisname (X tries)
Maybe I should start a discussion on the template talk page just asking around to see what others get.--Jeff79 (talk) 09:01, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
NRL squads
editI don't understand the benefits of the changes to the squads navboxes, I see the usefulness of having the coach on his own line, but beyond that and from a structural point of view it seems weaker to me.Londo06 01:04, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Template:Central Cheetahs
editA tag has been placed on Template:Central Cheetahs requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{transclusionless}}</noinclude>).

colours reply
editI changed most of the ones with white in the middle, because white is none of those teams main colours. I was going to change the Roosters ones as well, but I coudn't determine if red or blue was the more dominant colour so I left it as it is. I also didn't change Melbourne because both their non-white colours looked the same next to each other. The Windler talk 10:46, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
- For a SVG program - try Inkscape which is what I use (on Windows). While I can't create anything that some people make, it is easy to change colours.
- According to the Inkscape article, it will work on "Mac OS X (under X11)". You can download it here

jerseys
editYeah, sure, I worry about the new jersey's first and then the dimensions of the original two. When I upload them they will be on my gallery (I'm not posting them on the projects talk page any more). They should be done by the end of the day, but I'll alert you anyway.
Thanks for the barnstar, and I've been updating List of National Rugby League golden point games, which you made a FL, but to keep it accurate, I have been updating. Though, I though you might have, seeing you did a great job. The Windler talk 00:14, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- Also, is there a year the jersey was first used for the "war" and "blue heritage" jersey and when they were first used. To go with my theme of having the year the jersey's were first used in the image title. They don't have to be correct, just estimates. Alot of the years on my gallery are estimates, not real, especially for jersey's 1908-1970. The two original Roosters ones aren't, it is very famous and said in the book I'm using for all these jersey's.
- Also, is the blue jersey, exactly the same as the foundation jersey except with blue backdrop (instead of red) and the blue stripes replaced with red. The Windler talk 00:26, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- OK, I've done them all, uploaded new versions of the original two, and the war one (those three are on the Sydney Roosters article). The heritage jersey, once I'm given a year (I researched a little, and can't seem to find one, which is making me believe it is an "away" jersey, but...) I'll upload it. The Windler talk 01:44, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- OK, I've uploaded it as here Image:Eastern Suburbs home jersey 19??.svg (how original). I don't know what use you want to put to it so it's all yours. The Windler talk

Tildes v text
editHi M - just wondering why you are changing the time/date stamp tildes to text in the update field of the infobox? It's far quicker, more accurate etc to enter the tildes and makes it a better time reference for before/after game updates. Is there a reason? Cheers, •Florrie•leave a note• 09:11, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
- I must say that the 1 September 2008 is much better than 11:23, 1 September 2008 (UTC). I prefer writing the date out. I used to do the date after the game so there was no confusion. If you don't like writing out the date try {{subst:today}} will simply make: 1 September 2008. The Windler talk 11:23, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
- I'll stick to the tildes in that case, it's what it's designed for, after all and I do prefer the accuracy. I just couldn't work out why it was worth time/effort to somebody to follow along and change it. There's enough editing to be done without that. Cheers, •Florrie•leave a note• 13:18, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
- No worries, I've been offline for a bit anyway. All that preferences stuff with dates is now 'deprecated' and discouraged rather than encouraged. So, unless the wikilinking of a date has a direct relevance to an article about that date, it doesn't need to be done. See MOS:UNLINKDATES. Cheers, •Florrie•leave a note• 08:20, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
Junior reps in infobox
edit(cross-posted to Joel and M) What's the go with the Australian Schoolboys in the infoboxes? I thought we had agreed to not have junior and/or lower level rep sides in the infobox? Or has the Project changed it's stance? I'm a touch annoyed with all this to-ing and fro-ing edit/revert business over stuff I thought had been decided. Please let me know if it is definitely in or out. Cheers, •Florrie•leave a note• 02:24, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
- No, he was there. [1] That vote on coaching information clearly spelled out (to me, at least) the stance on playing information. The same rules for inclusion of playing data should apply. This means coaching of junior representative teams such as Australian Schoolboys and non-top-level teams such as those in the Queensland Cup should be in the body text only. And yet, here we are again... •Florrie•leave a note• 13:43, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
Names for clubs
editIf you wouldn't mind. Could you create a list of NSWRL/ARL/SL/NRL clubs and what they should be referred to in the infobox at certain times. And I'm also not sure about including mascots for early players. It would be appreciated. You don't have to of course. The Windler talk 20:44, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
I notice that you put Western Suburbs out very far... well west. Originally the magpies were based at Ashfield(which is east of cumberland and parramatta, even Homebush). They remained at Ashfield for over 60 years moving to Lidcombe in the seventies and than finally west to campbelltown in the eighties. You need to fix the location, but it is already very cluttered where wests would go, so, lol, good luck. --58.172.251.46 (talk) 12:17, 23 September 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.172.251.46 (talk)
List of New Zealand Warriors players
editHey. Re: you adding statistics to the list, I have two questions/queries: 1) Is there a way to get the T,G,FG & P categories to sort properly? 2) Unless someone is dedicated to updating them every round then I'm concerned they will become out of date and only some players will get updated. Mattlore (talk) 22:35, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
- Cheers for that, I might add players as they make there debut but leave the stats blank. Also will probably re-add the data that got lost in the transfer (date of debut, previous club, next club) at some point in the future. Mattlore (talk) 20:06, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
- I think listing clubs, especially previous clubs, is an important part of the list as it allows you to see who has come from domestic league, Australia etc and year-by-year trends. Mattlore (talk) 21:25, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
Off again

Hope to be back eventually. Cheers! •Florrie•leave a note• 13:33, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
- I am also now resting from the WikiProject. Though not stopping editing RL and other articles. I will watch over th eproject to make sure there are no modifications to any thing I have spent countless times trying to defend, but other than that am not going to dab in the project until next year. The three mini-projects I aim to have done by then are 1) Complete the list of "new=yes" removals, 2) Complete Justin Hodges, South Queensland Crushers, WA Reds and Northern Eagles to good articles and 3) Add a sentence or two to the Australian Schoolboys players to represent the material I've just mostly removed. Any help in (especially #1) would be appeciated and good luck and hope to see you back.
- Also, on your user page, is there an english version of your language templates. I'm interested in such things but unfortentuly (and they are poorly thought out) they put it in the language you speak. How are non- speakers going to know wht language you speak?

Orphaned non-free media (File:Brian the Rooster on the SMH.png)
editThanks for uploading File:Brian the Rooster on the SMH.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:20, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs
editHello MDM! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 3 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to insure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. if you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 4 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:
- Luke Ricketson - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
- Ferris Ashton - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
- Brian Canavan - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
Thanks!--DASHBot (talk) 21:48, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
The article Brian Canavan has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Unsourced BLP with inaccurate or stale information since online refs indicate someone else is CEO.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. FloNight♥♥♥♥ 01:21, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Notification of automated file description generation
editYour upload of File:Adelaide colours.png or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.
This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Manly 1950.jpg
editThank you for uploading File:Manly 1950.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.
Also:
ATTENTION: This is an automated, bot-generated message. This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:02, 9 July 2018 (UTC)
